Princess Is Glamorous In Modern Day Chapter 186 - Kneeling To Toast

Chapter 186 - Kneeling To Toast

Just as Bai Lian was looking at the door anxiously, the CEOs who were drinking, playing, and playing at the table became serious after receiving a call.

"CEO Xuan is in the room next door. Let's go over. Be smart."

Bai Lian thought that this CEO Xuan was probably a big investor.

Following a few small investors, a group of people walked towards the room next door.

"h.e.l.lo, CEO Xuan." The few presidents in the lead bowed and nodded the moment they entered. Bai Lian also bowed.

"Have a seat." To Bai Lian's surprise, the voice of this big investor, who was respectfully supported, was surprisingly very young.

As everyone sat on the sofa, Bai Lian looked up. The man in the main seat was exceptionally handsome. A white s.h.i.+rt made him look charming.

Xuan Sheng rubbed his eyebrows and felt that his heart was starting to stir again. He looked at the person in front of him more impatiently. "How is it?"

CEO Li gestured for Bai Lian to sit beside Xuan Sheng. Bai Lian stood up and approached Xuan Sheng.

Xuan Sheng, who was already feeling a little depressed, frowned when he smelled the strong fragrance of Bai Lian's perfume.

"Don't come over."

Bai Lian could only retreat in shame and anger.

"CEO Xuan, take a look at this project. It's newly developed by us." CEO Li glanced at Bai Lian and handed the project proposal to Xuan Sheng.

Bai Lian stepped aside and sent Xia Wanyuan a message.

"I'm at the door."

Seeing Xia Wanyuan's reply, Bai Lian finally relaxed and nodded at CEO Li.

"CEO Xuan, look at this proposal first. There's someone coming over. You must have fun before leaving today."

Xuan Sheng had stopped taking his medicine frequently these few days. He did not bring it with him when he went out this morning. Now, his hand that was holding the project proposal tightened slightly. He felt that the agitation in his heart was constantly looking for a breakthrough and wanted to break out of his body.

Xuan Sheng glanced at the plan and pursed his lips. "Is that all?" He stood up and wanted to leave.

CEO Li's expression changed and he hurriedly pulled Xuan Sheng back. However, before his hand could touch Xuan Sheng, he was frightened by his cold gaze. He hurriedly retracted his hand. "CEO Xuan, what are you dissatisfied with? Let's discuss again."

"What is there to discuss about for this trash?" Xuan Sheng raised his leg to leave, but CEO Li did not dare to stop him.

At that moment, the door was pushed open.

Xia Wanyuan had originally thought that Bai Lian was the only one who had invited her. She didn't expect there to be so many people. From the looks of it, they probably wanted her to accompany the capitalist like Supervisor Jin was playing games.

However, she did not expect to meet someone familiar.

Xia Wanyuan glanced at Xuan Sheng, then at the room filled with celebrities and young models. Her eyebrows raised slightly.

"Yuan Yuan, you're here. Quick, come in and introduce everyone. This is my best friend, Xia Wanyuan." Bai Lian walked to the door and wanted to hold Xia Wanyuan's arm. Unexpectedly, Xia Wanyuan pushed her hand away and walked in.

"Miss Xia is so beautiful." Seeing that Xuan Sheng looked at Xia Wanyuan without blinking, CEO Li stopped in his tracks. He thought that there was a chance. "CEO Xuan, let's give Beauty Xia face and stay for a while before leaving."

Xuan Sheng sat back on the sofa.

"Come, Miss Xia, sit here." CEO Li pointed at the seat beside Xuan Sheng, but Xia Wanyuan ignored him and sat on the sofa.

"Here, Miss Xia, have a drink." CEO Li poured a gla.s.s of wine and handed it to Xia Wanyuan.

"Shouldn't the person who invited me pour me wine?" Xia Wanyuan's expression was cold, and she didn't even look at CEO Li.

"Come, Bai Lian, come here. Pour Miss Xia a gla.s.s of wine." CEO Li waved. Bai Lian gritted her teeth and forced a smile. She poured a gla.s.s of wine and handed it to Xia Wanyuan.

"I wonder if CEO Li has heard some rumors about me?" Xia Wanyuan didn't accept the wine gla.s.s. Instead, she got Bai Lian to hold the wine gla.s.s while she spoke to CEO Li.

"What rumor?" CEO Li was a little confused.

"I'm especially arrogant and have a bad temper." Xia Wanyuan scolded herself word by word, causing everyone to be confused. "Especially because I have a bad habit of liking others to kneel and give me a toast."

"You!" When Xia Wanyuan said this, Bai Lian's eyes burned with anger.

"I think Miss Xia's habit is quite good." Xuan Sheng smiled when he heard that. This Xia Wanyuan really did not suffer any loss. Bai Lian had set her up, but she made her kneel and propose a toast.

"Yes, yes." Seeing that Xuan Sheng had said so, CEO Li followed suit and gave Bai Lian a threatening look.

There was nothing Bai Lian could do. She was still counting on CEO Li to give her resources, so she could only endure the humiliation and kneel in front of Xia Wanyuan. She handed the wine gla.s.s to Xia Wanyuan. "Please."

Xia Wanyuan glanced at Bai Lian with cold eyes. This Bai Lian had deceived the original owner of the body and caused the Xia family to go bankrupt. Now, she was using her as a friend to exchange for benefits.

If this person was in the Xia Dynasty, she would have probably been beheaded countless times.

Xia Wanyuan took the cup from Bai Lian. Just as Bai Lian was about to stand up, she splashed the entire cup of wine on her face.

"Xia Wanyuan, you!" Bai Lian felt her eyes burn. She was in a sorry state. She immediately reached out to slap Xia Wanyuan, but Xia Wanyuan grabbed her wrist.

"You won't be so lucky the next time you plot against me." Xia Wanyuan leaned closer to Bai Lian and whispered to her. The coldness in her tone made Bai Lian's heart tremble.

After speaking, Xia Wanyuan shook off Bai Lian's hand. Bai Lian lost her balance and fell to the ground. No one around dared to help her.

Everyone looked at Xia Wanyuan in surprise. This person looked so beautiful, but they did not expect her to be so ruthless.

Amongst the people present, only Xuan Sheng could laugh.

Looking at Xia Wanyuan, who was sitting calmly as if nothing could affect her, Xuan Sheng rubbed his ear studs and the corners of his lips curled up. This woman, Xia Wanyuan, was G.o.d d.a.m.n my cup of tea.

"Alright, all of you can leave. Miss Xia and I have something to talk about." Xuan Sheng suddenly spoke.

"Then what do you think of this project proposal?"

"Leave it here. I'll consider it."

"Okay, then please go ahead." CEO Li was happy that his goal had been achieved. He hurriedly led his people away. No one came forward to help Bai Lian up, so he could only struggle to get up from the ground.

She looked at Xia Wanyuan with jealousy and anger before leaving the room.

"Miss Xia." Xuan Sheng poured a gla.s.s of water for Xia Wanyuan. "I really didn't know about what happened today."

"Mm." Xia Wanyuan could tell.

Xuan Sheng looked at Xia Wanyuan's exquisite side profile and his heart skipped a beat. Just as he was about to say something, he felt his mind suddenly turn chaotic and pain surged up like needles.
